Shutterbug reader Erick Castellón has a particular attraction to lone trees because of the patterns and textures they create against the sky. This stunning image of an oak tree was captured by Castellón in Calero Park in San Jose, California, in February 2015. “On the day I took this shot, I had been watching the clouds early in the day and was hoping for something interesting,” Castellón says.

The subscription department of the company that owns Shutterbug has alerted me that an unauthorized telemarketer has illegally obtained a smallportion of our subscriber file and has been attempting to contact some subscribers for unsolicited renewals and payment of invoices.
